After a wedding has been and gone the bride’s dress is often cleaned, boxed and stored, if not sold. But there are certain elements of the attire that can be worn again, including the shoes and jewellery, and so as we see it, these are areas worth spending a little extra time on.

In terms of footwear, obviously style is key, but then so is comfort – of all days, your wedding day is not one that you want to be hobbling around on. We therefore advise looking to the experts in bridal footwear who take into consideration a bride’s needs when putting together their collections. One such designer that you ladies can rely on for style and wear-ability is our wonderful Sponsor Paradox London Pink.

Boasting a broad choice of shoe styles for both the bride and her maids, there are various fabrics, colourways and details to pick from, and even the option of dying certain satin designs to complement your exact colour scheme. Furthermore, comfort technology is paramount to the designs and so all include comfort pads, memory foam cushioning and breathable lining, to keep you dancing all night long.

To fuel your inspiration, we’re taking a look at the latest collection from Paradox London Pink today and hearing more from the team on their fine footwear options…
